Shedeur Sanders - 2023-25 Tracking History Thread - Drafted by the Cleveland Browns (NFL)
- Thread starter #1 pick
- Start date
Agree. However, I dont recall Colin coming in to the NFL with baggage. Yes he was PROVEN top half of QBs. SS is a long way from proven top half and already has an excessive amount of baggage.
I am pro SS, and I believe he can be an absolute stud. in the NFL I am a fan, playing devils advocate, trying to wrap my head around what happened.,
Da fuq is this baggage? As has been stated before, the NFL has been more than accommodating for rapists, abusers, drug addicts, and murderers.
Just don't be "uppity", amirite?

Im talking everything they are using against him. (Right or wrong) As I said before, I dont get it, Just repeating what I am hearing on all the national shows and so called experts.
It seams former players all have had SS back, while anyone who never put on pads have been more vocal about SS antics. (not a surprise)
I dont remember Colin having any issue before making it in the NFL I could be wrong, I was not not a fan of him or the 49ers, so didnt follow them

Except that the Broncos offered him a deal and easy chance to be the starter that he turned down
THE NFL Draft isn't always about the best player. Sometimes it's about the least risk. The 1st round is a huge commitment that can cost a team anywhere from $20-40 Million. If a team sees red flags, they are going to pass on a player and take a safer option. The deeper you get into the draft the lower the commitment and bigger risk teams are willing to take. As much potential as Shedeur has, he also didn't make it easy on teams to pick him. He could have been a model candidate over the past 2 months and he would have gone in the 1st round. Teams thought he didn't take the process seriously and would be more of a distraction than anything else. Would he take training camp seriously? Would he split the locker room? Would he become a bigger story than the team? It's easy to get neagtive if the player tanks an interview and can't show respect during interviews?
How would you handle a canddite if hiring at work? Would you bring him on becasue he can save the company? If your company doesn't need to be saved, you most definitely would tell him to take a hike.
I love what Shedeur did for CU and I hope he is wildly successful in the NFL, partly to shut up all the a-holes, but he cost himself a lot of money by not being professional and taking things seriously.

This 100%
Get out of here with that sh*t.
That is false. The Broncos considered trading for Kaepernick in 2016 (after the retirement of Peyton Manning and defection of Brock Osweiler to Houston), before Kaepernick ever protested during the anthem, but he declined to reduce his guaranteed salary to facilitate a trade. Then, once he became a free agent in 2017, the Broncos showed no interest, arguing basically that he had his chance to sign with the team in 2016. (Meanwhile, Osweiler was offered a contract in 2017, a year after spurning the Broncos for the Texans.)

So he was offered a job pre-protest, at what the Broncos considered his market value, he turned it down, and it's shocking he got no offers post-protest while still wanting a ton of money?

I have a contract for $100mm. But you think I'm worth $15mm. My current employer is obligated to pay me $100mm. You think I should go to work for you instead? LOL. Okay.
